When you're a trusting person just trying to get along and you suspect no evil, without a mental model of the web app bureaucracy, how are you supposed to get the necessary experience?
Tiny click targets that I can't consistently hit, unclear form flows, slow websites, verification processes that don't work if you forget that you had an account already.
I don't see any of this horror in my Luddite bubble of avoiding mass-appeal services and mainstream phones.

@kkarhan @GrapheneOS @tails_live @torproject @signalapp
"GrapheneOS chose their requirements and they can happily design their own platform instead."
There's no need to reinvent the wheel. AOSP is a secure, open-source platform that has been around for almost 20 years. I don't want to debate rumors that Google wants to make AOSP proprietary because there is no evidence to support this, especially since it would not benefit them in any way.
"I just think that their stubbornness"
It's not stubborness and I explained why.
"They are the antithesis to #Tails when it comes to #UserFriendly-ness and approachability for #Normies and #TechIlliterates
It's probably the first time I've seen “Tails” and “Normie” in the same sentence, It's not that Tails is difficult to use, but I'm really not sure that many “normies” use it or even know it exists. The user experience on GrapheneOS is almost identical to Pixel OS, the standard operating system for Google Pixel devices, so using GrapheneOS is likely to seem much simpler and familiar to normies, as they will already be used to it.
"Espechally since the problems woth #MobilePhones and the underlying technology ain't fixable with an #AndroidROM
GrapheneOS is not a ROM, Pixel OS is not a ROM, and LineageOS is not a ROM either, theses operating systems are not ROMs.
"Instead we need to foster a #SecurityCulture and proper #ITsec, #InfoSec, #OpSec & #comsec
Indeed, and what GrapheneOS does about security is completely appropriate, including informing people and giving them good advice.
"Otherwise we'll see them fail the same way @signalapp did, which is eitger getting shut down (#EncroChat-style) or being uncovered as a controlled opposition / honeypot (like #ANØM aka. #OperationIronside aka. #OperationTrøjanShield)…"
Signal did not fail, and mentioning Encrochat, ANON, and honeypots in the same sentence is irrelevant. These things have absolutely nothing in common with Signal, you seem to be believing made-up stories.

⬆️ @iuculano
Burger King will put a command line interface on its employees in Quebec.
In 50 years, we went from teaching #techies how to command machines to teaching machines how to command #normies.
>> #BurgerKing employees in #Quebec will soon be monitored by #ArtificialIntelligence that will listen to their conversations & give them orders
>> … The technology, developed by #OpenAI, is already implemented in some 500 restaurants in #US

@b7bird.bsky.social #KidRock , who makes music for dads who only get to see their kids on weekends, and don’t show up, is the *perfect* choice for the #MAGA #SuperBowl halftime show since they weren’t invited to any #football parties with family members and/or #normies anyway! 😂

For #MAGA cult members who have not been invited to watch the #SuperBowl with their family or friends who are #normies , #KidRock has been announced as the headliner for the #fascist friendly halftime show. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/turning-point-usas-super-bowl-halftime-lineup-brutally-mocked_n_69810d21e4b009bf7bdecf25

During the #NoKings protests across the #UnitedStates - even in #RedStates such as #Tennessee - it was clear that there are many more of us #normies than there are #MAGA #cult members.
Additionally, there are only 2 *types* of #MAGA cult members; #DonaldTheDeplorable #Trump the *leader* of the cult, and millions of replicants of this guy ⬇️ #IvanRaitlin , a cult *follower* with #TrumpDerangementSyndrome. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/watch-former-dc-police-officer-get-escorted-out-jack-smith-hearing-after-fiery-clash

What's the opposite of apophenia?
Dispophenia?
Either way, some of the normies suffer from this & it's killing us.
They have a distinct inability to see when the patterns have changed & current events are atypical.

@nullagent She has #TrumpDerangementSyndrome which requires an intervention by #normies that she respects and who care about her #MentalHealth. If there are no such people, she is doomed to live out her life in one #BasketOfDeplorables after another. Sad.

@elizabethjacobs.bsky.social I guess if #MAGA morons want to be accepted back into social groups of #normies , or get invited to their #normie family member’s #Thanksgiving dinner, they need to go through some kind of re-#education where they re-learn meaning of words such as #evidence and #fact. 🤷🏻♂️

@YouGiveMeFever #Hypocrisy is the only superpower of the #MAGA cult. It only works if #normies don’t #resist and call it out.

@temptoetiam @clive This only applies to the survivors and their descendants, which are relatively much fewer in number among the #MAGA death ☠️ cult than us #normies in the #resistance. ✅

I have a friend who says only people with mental problems use any of the Balkanised Activitypub Federation's instances, even and especially self hosted ones.

From time immemorial and in every language, even those that are no longer spoken, there has been a word or phrase to describe the ‘generation gap’ within every family.
But #DonaldTheDeplorable is doing the job of the #GrimReaper and making ultra-#MAGA parents ‘ghosts’ to children that are #normies. Very sad. Please boost if you can relate. #8647now

@Tengrain They should be assumed to be disease vectors, and interacted with accordingly!
Fortunately, the #PublicSquare website helps #Normies do just that! https://www.huffpost.com/entry/publicsquare-trump-critics-boycott-businesses_n_680900d2e4b00850c6839b0b

@MalcolmNance #TrumpDerangementSyndrome is real, and everyone in the #MAGA cult has it. They claim #normies have it because one of the characteristic symptoms of #TDS is a complete lack of #SelfAwareness and accusing others of what they themselves have done.

For any #UltraMAGA cult members that may be lurking in the #fediverse , or for #normies that have #MAGA mothers, this is a #PSA. #MothersDay is celebrated on the last Sunday in November in #Russia. https://www.officeholidays.com/holidays/russia/mothers-day
I believe it is traditional to give them a toilet 🚽 stolen from #Ukraine. 🤷🏻♂️

The #MAGA cult has voluntarily estranged itself from the ‘normies’ in their own marriage and/or family, not to mention traditional #Americans that honor the #UnitedStates #Constitution.
Like any cult member anywhere throughout #history they lack self-awareness and believe that the #normies are the #weird ones. Sad.
#ResistanceGenealogy as well as sad family stories such as ⬇️ will record who was who.

@georgetakei #Trump was #projecting when he said his critics had #TrumpDerangementSyndrome. #TDS is what differentiates #MAGA cult members from the rest of us '#normies.'

#newsbreak for #normies
#foss developers need to #eat. They cant fix your shit without a roof over their head.
So either throw COINS* at them, #CONTRIBUTE or #GTFO.
*if you are #poor and/or #homeless, this is not a message to you. To you I say: hang in there. We're working on it. Please use our free software as much as you like.

⬆️ @kissane >> I understand, "It's good if the #fediverse stays niche," but that's a solution for a tiny number of people.
@benroyce >> they don't want "the normies"… even picking a server is a step too high for many
👍
Even the dichotomy between #techies and #normies is facile, disrespectful, and uninviting. We need everybody to feel welcome and not force them to make choices like picking a server.
Is it possible to automatically select a sensible default and allow easy migration?
